- Cooking spray
- ⅓ cup coconut aminos
- 3 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil, divided
- 1 ½ teaspoons brown sugar
- 3 garlic cloves, grated or finely minced
- ¾ teaspoon fresh ginger, grated or finely minced
- 4 cups thinly sliced or julienned vegetables (such as 1 cup carrots, 1 cup mushrooms, 1 cup snow peas, 1 cup red bell pepper)
- 4 green onions, thinly sliced, white and green parts separated
- 1 ¼ lbs. boneless skinless chicken breast, very thinly sliced
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook noodles according to package directions, then drain and set aside.
Whisk together coconut aminos, rice vinegar, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger for the sauce. Set aside.
Heat 1 teaspoon sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add thinly sliced chicken and cook for 3-4 minutes until done. Remove chicken to a plate.
Add remaining 1 teaspoon sesame oil to the skillet. Stir fry carrots, mushrooms, snow peas, bell pepper, and the white parts of green onions for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp.
Return chicken to the pan with the cooked noodles. Pour in the sauce and toss to coat everything. Cook for 2-3 minutes until heated through.
Serve immediately, garnished with the green parts of the green onions and sesame seeds.
- For extra flavor, marinate the thinly sliced chicken in a bit of the sauce for 10 minutes before cooking.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when stir-frying vegetables; cook in batches if necessary to ensure they get crisp-tender, not steamed.
- For perfectly cooked noodles, follow package directions precisely and drain them immediately. Do not rinse, as the starch helps the sauce adhere.
- Adjust the heat of the sauce by adding a pinch of red pepper flakes with the garlic and ginger.
